Prologue - The Cross of Bethlehem August 2012 began violently
in the Sinai Peninsula. Glowing leftovers from the violence that
took place last February erupted into full flames, causing unprecedented
attacks from Israel and Egypt. On August 5, Global Jihad militants
attacked an Egyptian outpost near Gaza, killed 16 Egyptians,
and stole several vehicles. One of the stolen Fahd Armored Personnel
Carriers was hit in the subsequent Israeli air strike. A second
APC exploded before it could enter Israeli territory, at the
Kerem Shalom Border Terminal, which connects Israel, Gaza and
Egypt; the IDF released an aerial video of the incident. On August
8, Egypt responded with air strikes close to the border with
Israel, killing over twenty suspected Islamic militants, as reported
by state news agency Ahram. This is the first time the Egyptian
air force attacked Sinai since 1973. The peace agreement between
the countries forced Egypt to coordinate with Israel military
moves in Sinai. The ongoing insurrection in Sinai is gathering
momentum to such an extent that Egypts new Islamist government
and the Zionists are cooperating in ways they never thought possible.
Winds of change enliven slow-burning coals.

ANALYSIS: ISRAEL FEARS NEW GENERATION OF JIHADISTS ON THE
ITS BORDERS
A surge of violence in Egypt's Sinai desert this week is heightening
Israeli concerns about what officials and analysts describe as
the growing presence of al-Qaeda-linked jihadis along the Jewish
state's borders.

The Daily Beast, Dan Ephron 12:21AM BST 10 Aug 2012 - Egypt
used warplanes in Sinai for the first time in decades to strike
at the militants this week, after Islamists killed 16 Egyptian
security men Sunday, stole a truck full of explosives and an
armored vehicle and headed for Israel to try and perpetrate more
violence.

The truck exploded harmlessly at the border while an Israeli
fighter plane bombed the other vehicle, preventing what could
have been a devastating terrorist attack.

But the incident underscored the ways in which rising lawlessness
not just in Sinai but also in Syriaanother of Israel's
neighbours could embroil Israel in new and menacing security
problems, even as its conflict with the Palestinians remains
largely dormant.
I think were finally starting to wake up and understand
that the instability, in Syria even more than in Egypt, is allowing
jihadi groups to come in, said David Bukay, a professor
of Middle East studies at Israels Haifa University. People
have to understand that the alternative to Bashar al-Assad is
al-Qaeda, he said. Continued:

Many were surprised on June 24, 2012, when the Egyptian army
let Mohamed Morsi be declared Egypts first Islamist president
in the freest elections in the countrys history. He confronted
and won the army-backed candidate, Mr. Shafik, who was the last
Prime Minister under President Mubarak. Morsi is identified with
the Muslim Brotherhood, a movement that had been ruthlessly suppressed
by all previous Egyptian presidents. All of the latter had been
closely related to the armed forces. Seeing this miracle of democracy,
one was forced to ask what kind of deal had been struck between
the army and the Muslim Brotherhood; after all this was the same
army that dismantled the parliament before the last presidential
elections. Until this week, such a deal was just a conjecture.
Then, on August 8, Egypt attacked Global Jihad forces near Gaza
and a new reality was disclosed. Subsequently, on August 14,
the legal advisor of the Egyptian president, Mohammed Gadallah,
told to the Egyptian al-Masry al-Youm that Egypt is considering
amending the Camp David Accords between his country and Israel
in order to regain full sovereignty over Sinai. This is a slight
modification from the Muslim Brotherhood typical request to perform
a referendum on the agreement imposed on the Egyptian people.
Egypts latest actions show that the agreement has already
been amended..." Continued: http://www.roitov.com/articles/sinaisovereignty.htm

'TERRORISTS AND MORSI HAVE IDENTICAL AIMS'
Tzvi Mazel, former Israeli Ambassador to Egypt, thinks Egypt
won't prevent terror from Sinai.
AAFont SizeBy Hezki Ezra & Gil Ronen - First Publish: 8/7/2012,
8:51 PM - Former Israeli Ambassador to Egypt Tzvi Mazel told
Arutz Sheva Tuesday that he does not believe the Egyptian government
will take effective action against the terrorists who operate
in Sinai.

"We must remember that the person running Egypt today
is the Muslim Brotherhood's Mohammed Morsi," he explained.
"The Muslim Brotherhood is the group that laid the foundations
for today's radical Islam and Islamic terrorism. The Muslim Brotherhood
developed a theory that favors a return to 'the good old days'
of the prophet Mohammed and establish a Muslim empire. Islamic
law would be the constitution and then they would make an effort
to conquer the world."

"The terrorists who came to carry out the attack from
Sinai were raised upon the Muslim Brotherhood's fanatical theory,"
he said. "Morsi and the terrorists who carried out the attack
have the same ideology and the same goal  to impose Islam
on the Middle East and the entire world."

"Will the Muslim Brotherhood become pragmatic? Forget
ideology and concentrate on Egypt? I do not believe that will
happen. The radical Islamic ideology has been running in the
blood of the Muslim Brotherhood for 80 years."

KHAMENEI CALLS FOR 'FAKE ZIONIST REGIME' TO DISAPPEAR
Irans Supreme Leader again expresses hope that the "fake
Zionist regime will disappear from the landscape of geography."
By Elad Benari

Irans Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, once
again expressed hope on Wednesday that Israel would be wiped
off the map.

The Iranian Mehr news agency quoted Khamenei as having expressed
confidence that the Palestinians will eventually
retake control of their motherland.

The light of hope will shine on the Palestinian issue,
and this Islamic land will certainly be returned to the Palestinian
nation, and the superfluous and fake Zionist (regime) will disappear
from the landscape of geography, Khamenei said during a
meeting with a number of Iranian war veterans who were prisoners
of war during the Iran-Iraq war between 1980 and 1988.

The statements come ahead of Al Quds (Jerusalem) Day,
which marks the Friday before the conclusion of the month of
Ramadan. The day was established in 1979 by Ayatollah Khomeni
as a way for the Arab-Muslim world to express support for the
"Palestinian cause" and the "liberation of Jerusalem."

The original declaration states that Israel is the
enemy of mankind, the enemy of humanity, which is creating disturbances
every day and is attacking our brothers 

Irans leaders have regularly called to wipe Israel
off the map. Several weeks ago, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
labeled Israel the axis of unity of the world hegemonic
powers.

It has now been some 400 years that a horrendous Zionist
clan has been ruling the major world affairs, and behind the
scenes of the major power circles, in political, media, monetary
and banking organizations in the world, they have been the decision
makers... the Iranian president claimed. Continued: http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/158955

Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
ReutersWhat will an Israeli strike on Iran look like? American
blogger Richard Silverstein on Wednesday published what he claimed
is an Israeli briefing document outlining Israels war plans
against Iran.

Silverstein, who authors the blog Tikun Olam,
said the document was passed to him by a high-level Israeli source
who received it from an IDF officer.

According to the document presented in the blog, the Israeli
attack on Iran will begin with a coordinated strike, including
an unprecedented cyber-attack which will totally paralyze the
Iranian regime and its ability to know what is happening within
its borders. The internet, telephones, radio and television,
communications satellites, and fiber optic cables leading to
and from critical installations will be taken out of action.
The electrical grid throughout Iran will be paralyzed and transformer
stations will absorb severe damage from carbon fiber munitions
which are finer than a human hair, causing electrical short circuits
whose repair requires their complete removal.

Following the coordinated strike, according to the document,
A barrage of tens of ballistic missiles would be launched
from Israel toward Iran. 300km ballistic missiles would be launched
from Israeli submarines in the vicinity of the Persian Gulf.
The missiles would not be armed with unconventional warheads
[WMD], but rather with high-explosive ordnance equipped with
reinforced tips designed specially to penetrate hardened targets.

NETANYAHU 'DETERMINED TO ATTACK IRAN' BEFORE U.S. ELECTIONS
Posted on August 21, 2012 at 6:49am by Sharona
Schwartz - Israels Channel 10 News is reporting Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is determined  to strike
Iranian nuclear facilities this fall, before the November elections
in the U.S., and that Israels leaders believe the Obama
administration will have no choice but to support the Israeli
military action.

Asked by the newscasts anchor How close are we
to a decision and/or an attack? Military Affairs Correspondent
Alon Ben-David said on Monday night, It appears closer
than ever. He reports [Hebrew
link]:

Its very clear that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
is determined to attack Iran before the U.S. elections.

Now, two months after severe sanctions on Iran have not borne
fruit, in the prime ministers opinion, the time for action
is getting closer. It also appears that Netanyahu does not expect
to have a meeting with Obama at the end of next month at the
UN  and its unclear if it will take place. I doubt
if there is any statement Obama can make that will convince Netanyahu
to delay the possible attack.

In interviews that both he and Defense Minister Ehud Barak,
it seems they believe that the US president will have to give
backing for an Israeli attack before the elections, even though
Joint Chiefs Chairman Martin Dempsey said this morning that the
U.S. is not obligated to give support to an Israeli strike.

Within Israel there is significant disagreement over how
to best handle Irans determined efforts toward becoming
a nuclear power. Just last week, Israels President Shimon
Peres was slammed by officials in the prime ministers office
and by Likud Members of Knesset for saying in a television interview
that Israel
cannot strike Iran on its own. Ben-David maps out the extensive
list of those who disagree with Netanyahus strategy:

Its true that opposite Netanyahu stands an impressive
line of those opposing  from the [Israeli] President [Shimon
Peres], to the [IDF] chief of staff and generals, heads of intelligence,
opposition leader [Shaul] Mofaz, and of course the Americans,
but the one that will decide in the end will be the cabinet,
and there it seems a Netanyahu majority for an attack is almost
guaranteed.

Another sign perhaps signaling imminent action: on Monday,
Israels National Security Adviser Yaakov Amidror
met with one of the countrys leading spiritual figures,
Rabbi Ovadia Yosef in order to brief him on the latest developments
regarding Iran. Ynet cites a story on the ultra-Orthodox website
Kikar Hashabat: Continued:

Iran's Foreign Minister, Ali Akbar Salehi, dismisses the
possibility that Israel will launch a military strike on his
country.
By Elad Benari - First Publish: 8/22/2012, 4:43 AM - Iran's Foreign
Minister, Ali Akbar Salehi, dismissed on Tuesday the possibility
that Israel would launch a military strike on his country. Speaking
in an interview with Egypts Al-Ahram newspaper, Salehi
said, Israel is not in a position to wage war against Iran,
and Israeli papers confirm it. The hinting at the military option
by the Americans and Israelis shows that other options have failed.
In any case, we are preparing for all possibilities.

Salehi also described Israel as a cancerous tumor"
that is doomed to disappear, echoing remarks made last week by
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad who last week called for "wiping
the Zionist regime from humanity."

Irans Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, expressed
hope last week that Israel would be wiped off the map, saying,
The light of hope will shine on the Palestinian issue,
and this Islamic land will certainly be returned to the Palestinian
nation, and the superfluous and fake Zionist (regime) will disappear
from the landscape of geography.

Salehi told the Egyptian newspaper he hopes Egypt and Iran
would restore normal ties after a three-decade cooling of relations.

He described Egypt as a "cornerstone" of the region
and a state that enjoys a distinctive status among Arab and Islamic
countries. He voiced his optimism for the future of the Islamic
World despite the recent developments and crises in the Middle
East and North Africa. Continued: http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/159141

IAEA-IRAN NUCLEAR NEGOTIATIONS BREAK DOWN

By REUTERS 08/24/2012 19:19 UN nuclear watchdog says discussions
failed to yield agreement, no plans for another meeting; Iran's
Soltanieh: Progress made. VIENNA - Talks between the United Nations'
nuclear watchdog and Iran aimed at resolving concerns about Tehran's
atomic program broke up on Friday without an agreement, and a
senior UN official said no further talks were scheduled.

"The discussions today were intensive but important
differences remain between Iran and the UN that prevented agreement,"
the International Atomic Energy Agency's chief inspector, Herman
Nackaerts, told journalists after meeting an Iranian delegation
in Vienna.

"At the moment we have no plans for another meeting."

Iran's ambassador to the IAEA, Ali Asghar Soltanieh, said
that "undoubtedly some progress" was made but that
differences remained.

Tighten Iran sanctions"Because it is a very complex
issue ... issues related to national security of a member state
are something very delicate," he said. "But I have
to say that we are moving forward ... and we are going to continue
this process so that we at the end of the day will have a framework
agreed by both sides."
